Default Re: Running your hybrid cleaner. Or dirtier.

Actually in Zurich, Switzerland, they have a similar system in operation at the airport.
Ok, not dog poo, but in the airport area all compostable waste is collected and fermented to produce methane. The plant provides heat directly to teh area buildings, including airport and adjacent hotels, and produces methane which is used to power airport hotel shuttles. A very cool setup that has been in operation for teh past 5 years at least.
